Ep 172: UPDATE: Serial Killer Identified in the Colonial Parkway Murders, Part 2

Laura and Hazel discuss Ryan Murphy’s Monsters scripted show on Netflix including the portrayal of Leslie Abramson and whether a female juror from the first trial told Leslie that the men voted for murder because they didn’t like her.  Laura and Hazel also focus on what it meant to be a Menendez and why Erik and Lyle could not just leave, applying the lens of coercive control.   Whilst debating the potential resentencing of both Lyle and Erik, Laura outlines Sally Challen’s case in the UK where the 2015 coercive control law played a role in changing her murder conviction to manslaughter, leading to her release from prison. Could the same happen for Lyle and Erik?   For more in-depth conversations, extra episodes and an opportunity to be part of the Ringleader monthly Happy Hour, join the Crime Analyst Squad: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst   #MenendezMurders #MenendezBrothers #Netflix #LyleMenendez #ErikMenendez #Menudo #LeslieAbramson #CrimeAnalyst #TrueCrime #Podcast #DomesticAbuse #CoerciveControl #SallyChallen Clips https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-menendez-brothers-the-official-companion-podcast/id1375339408?i=1000672327879   Sources Crime Analyst Menendez Series Case 7 https://www.crime-analyst.com/p/case-007-the-menendez-murders/ https://www.amazon.com/Hung-Jury-Diary-Menendez-Juror/dp/1631681621  http://menendezmurders.com/about-robert-rand/ https://www.courttv.com/trials/ca-v-menendez-1993/ https://www.amazon.com/Menendez-Murders-Updated-Shocking-Killings/dp/1637745974 https://www.peacocktv.com/watch-online/tv/menendez--menudo-boys-betrayed/8222254554603265112/seasons/1 https://www.newyorker.com/culture/on-television/ryan-murphys-latest-era-of-cynical-hits https://da.lacounty.gov/media/news/gascon-provides-update-menendez-brothers con-provides-update-menendez-brothers https://www.thewrap.com/dominick-dunne-erik-lyle-menendez-brothers-gay/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/erik-menendez-slams-ryan-murphy-monsters-dishonest-portrayal-1236008627/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/ryan-murphy-monsters-menendez-reaction-thrilled-1236019251/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/menendez-brothers-monsters-ryan-murphy-kim-kardashian-1236024160/   REGISTER For Laura’s 2024 Masterclasses: https://shoutout.wix.com/so/b4P5SKknQ?languageTag=en&region=d05bd898-376e-4b0e-a40c-bf52dec282ef   More Training Info: www.dashriskchecklist.com www.thelaurarichards.com   YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Facebook Crime Analyst Podcast Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Threads @crimeanalyst X @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards999 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.

On October 3 2024 District Attorney George Gascón called an odd, impromptu press conference about the Menendez Brothers case. This was followed by more than 24 members of the Menendez/Andersen families holding a press conference on October 16 outside the courthouse in downtown LA.   On the heels of that, on October 24, District Attorney George Gascón called another press conference and announced his recommendation to resentence Erik and Lyle Menendez to 50 years to life and that they should be eligible for parole immediately.   The brothers have been in prison for 34 years and six months. In the run up to the election, there’s a lot at stake. Join Laura as she unravels the next steps. Listen to the family and understand why both sides are unified and supporting Erik and Lyle’s immediate release.   For more in-depth conversations, extra episodes and an opportunity to be part of the Ringleader monthly Happy Hour, join the Crime Analyst Squad: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst   #MenendezMurders #MenendezBrothers #Monsters #LyleMenendez #ErikMenendez #Menudo #CrimeAnalyst #TrueCrime #Podcast #GeorgeGascon #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth #DomesticAbuse #CoerciveControl Clips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3u2n9-Wukvs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOOtjn1JiFY   Sources http://menendezmurders.com/about-robert-rand/ https://www.courttv.com/trials/ca-v-menendez-1993/ https://www.amazon.com/Menendez-Murders-Updated-Shocking-Killings/dp/1637745974 https://www.peacocktv.com/watch-online/tv/menendez--menudo-boys-betrayed/8222254554603265112/seasons/1 https://www.newyorker.com/culture/on-television/ryan-murphys-latest-era-of-cynical-hits https://da.lacounty.gov/media/news/gascon-provides-update-menendez-brothers con-provides-update-menendez-brothers https://www.thewrap.com/dominick-dunne-erik-lyle-menendez-brothers-gay/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/erik-menendez-slams-ryan-murphy-monsters-dishonest-portrayal-1236008627/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/ryan-murphy-monsters-menendez-reaction-thrilled-1236019251/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/menendez-brothers-monsters-ryan-murphy-kim-kardashian-1236024160/   REGISTER For Laura’s 2024 Masterclasses: https://shoutout.wix.com/so/0fOy_yFBC?languageTag=en   More Training Info: www.dashriskchecklist.com www.thelaurarichards.com   YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Threads @crimeanalyst X @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards999 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.
